Critical algorithms are ported into FPGA logic and administered by ordinary PCs via commodity ethernet. SLAC has developed a controls architecture which is based on FPGA technology interconnected by 10G ethernet and commercially available ATCA shelves. A custom ATCA carrier board hosting an FPGA, memory and other resources provides a "common platform" for many applications which can be implemented on AMC cards which are plugged into the carrier. A library of firmware modules including e.g., timing, history buffers and reliable network communication together with corresponding software packages complement the common platform hardware and provide a standardized environment which can be employed for a variety of high-performance applications across the laboratory.
